The memorial plaque and stone pictured here honors the U.S. Army Air Forces B-17F Flying Fortress aircrew that crashed in Eygelshoven, Netherlands, on Oct. 14, 1943. Eighty years later, several members from Army Field Support Battalion-Benelux, U.S. Army Garrison Benelux, the Dutch Ministry of Defense, and local veteran groups and historians met at the memorial site – which is located just a stone’s throw from the Eygelshoven Army Prepositioned Stocks-2 worksite – to honor their legacy.
